WiCS - What We Do

BonzAI Brawl

WiCS partners with the Husky Game Development Enterprise and Uplison Pi Epsilon Honor Society to host BonzAI Brawl, an all-day programming competition that takes place in early April.

During
the event, teams of up to three people program an artificial
intelligence to play a themed game. After the programming
portion is finished, the competitor's AIs battle each other for
prizes.

Outreach to Grade Schools

Computer Science is an extremely diverse field with many
opportunities in almost every area of study. Knowing this, WiCS
designed an outreach program that demonstrates to grade school students
how rewarding earning a Computer Science degree can be. It consists of a
presentation outlining various computing careers and an interactive
portion that illustrates simple programming concepts. The interactive portion is based on the
activities that are available from CS Unplugged.

Organizational Meetings

WiCS hosts several meetings each year for members and those
interested in the organization to attend. These meetings provide
networking opportunities and the chance to develop more opportunities
and events within WiCS.

Often the meetings have some sort of fun theme or activity; such as
cookie decorating, crafts, or adorning the holiday tree in Rekhi.
Meetings are fun, informative, and friendship-forming; come to one to
learn more about the lovely members of WiCS!

Visit the Annual Grace Hopper Convention

Every year WiCS works to send as many members as possible to the Annual Grace Hopper Celebration, which is a wonderful opportunity that is the largest gathering in the world of tehnical women in computing.
